Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and the Republican Party represent “extremist” political movements hell-bent on rescinding civil rights protections for minority groups, according to a course curriculum assigned to students at Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas.

The course curriculum, obtained exclusively by Campus Reform, declares that Republicans are resurrecting “discrimination” and the “political battle over the Civil Rights laws,” and concludes that “racism” and “bigotries” in society are part of “ultra right [sic] politics.”

“Neo-Confederacy movements which are part of Big Money ultra-right powers (Koch Industries, co-founders of the John Birch Society) which is part of the broad New White Nationalist movement,” the outline reads.
